This translation stems from 30 years of dedication. The source of this translation is the BYZ (Majority Text). We have included variant readings from the Textus Receptus. A better understanding of typing skills is employed to highlight grammar nuances: underlining is used to show the main thought of the writer, bold to emphasize the first word in the sentence, and italics to indicate words not present in the Greek text but are added for better reading. Words in parentheses (brackets) denote prepositions in the Greek text. When referring to God, Christ, or the Holy Spirit, pronouns will be capitalized. For the Received Text, we use '&' to indicate a preposition that belongs to genitive or dative nouns. This Grammar Uses Version of the Received Text has strong numbering and you can purchase the Lexicon for every word used in this translation. This Lexicon is called: Lexicon of the Grammar Uses Version of the Received Text. While Greek is a participle-rich language, this translation will provide only one usage, but the notes will mention other possible translations to offer further alternatives. Nouns and adjectives: Nominatives serve as subjects of the verbs; genitives indicate possession by other nouns; datives function as indirect objects of the verb; and accusatives are direct objects. These are standard interpretations, though exceptions exist as in all languages. Second-person personal pronouns: 'You' (you) when used as the subject corresponds to 'you (singular) and '%you' (plural). For possession, 'your' (singular) and '%your' (plural) are used. As direct objects, 'you' (singular) and '%you' (plural) are employed. Verbs: Greek grammar features six tenses: Present (is doing), Imperfect (was doing), Aorist (which in the notes indicates the past – did), Perfect (have done), Pluperfect (had done), and Future (will/shall do). There are six moods: Indicative (normal), Participle (present: doing; aorist: having done, also future and perfect), Infinitive (present: to be doing; aorist: to have done), Imperative (present: keep doing or stop doing; aorist: do or do not), Subjunctive (present: may do/should be doing; aorist: might do/ should do), and Optative (may do with wishful thinking). Three voices are present: Active, Middle, and Passive. Given Greek's affinity for participles, it's beneficial to grasp their syntactical uses. PARTICIPLES: Time (while: with the present tense; after: with the aorist tense), Means, Manner, Purpose, Result, Cause (because), Concession (although), Substantive, Attendant Circumstance (and), Periphrastic Participle, Indirect Discourse, Adjectival Participle, Redundant (Appositional) Absolute, Genitive Absolute / Nominative Absolute, and Imperatival. INFINITIVES: Complementary, Purpose, Result, Causal, Time, Subject, Indirect Discourse, Appositional, Direct Object, and Imperatival.

Eadie’s last commentary on the New Testament—on the text of the Thessalonian epistles—is attentive to the minute details of the Greek text. Although he writes in the tradition of the great Greek scholars of his generation, he also provides original research on the text, tracing the arguments in Paul’s thinking and presenting thorough linguistic and exegetical notes. The final completion of Eadie’s commentary on 1 and 2 Thessalonians was interrupted by his death in 1876. Final editing and publication was arranged by his friend, John Cairns, yet the work remains substantially Eadie’s.

The original 63 volumes set are now reduced to 9 volumes. We have completed volumes 1, 6-9 which are the New Testament. Lord willing during 2023-2024, we will try to complete volumes 2-5 which are the Old Testament. This volume was published between 1867-1874 In contrast to the extreme skeptical-critical mode which came to characterize much of German scholarship in the 19th century, Lange represented a more traditional-conservative (and Evangelical) approach, shared in common with men such as E. W. Hengstenberg. He was also a (Reformed) minister, and the Commentaries reflect this combination of conservative criticism, Evangelical theology, and homiletics, in a way that is unique. For each passage that is covered, a consistent approach is adopted throughout. After giving the text in translation, along with textual notes, (as footnotes), three different kinds of commentary are presented: · EXEGETICAL AND CRITICAL · DOCTRINAL AND ETHICAL · HOMILETICAL AND PRACTICAL This gives you three times the value! For each verse you select, a drop-down box will appear allowing you to choose from each of these areas or kinds of commentary. For detailed analysis, go to the exegetical-critical notes; for sermon ideas and pastoral insights, select the Homiletical notes.

B. F. Westcott's classic commentary on the Greek version of The Epistles of St John. Contains extensive verse-by-verse exegetical commentary, as well as multiple “dissertations” on various subjects relating to the epistles. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you will see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.

This book was published in 1906 by Brook Foss Westcott (1825-1901). This edition is edited to emphasize the English instead of the Greek. We have Greek=English Interlinear so that a layperson can follow Dr. Westcott's brilliant exegesis of the text. These are NOT scanned pages as image pdf. These texts are OCR; removed page headers; spelled checked; added italics and bold fonts; added Greek; added Hebrew and added Biblical cross-references. This Biblical commentary DOES NOT contain Introductions, but verse by verse with table of contents. B. F. Westcott's classic commentary on the Greek version of St. Paul's letter to the Ephesians. Contains extensive verse-by-verse exegetical commentary, as well as multiple “dissertations” on various subjects relating to the epistle. An exegetical classic by a well-respected scholar. Long out of print, it deserves the same attention as Westcott's work in Johannine literature.
